Apatosaurus Model

Bring one of the most recognisable giants of the Jurassic Period to life with this highly detailed 1:35 scale Apatosaurus model. Built around realistic proportions and natural anatomy, it captures the immense body, long neck and powerful tail of a dinosaur that could reach extraordinary sizes.

The sculpting focuses on the details that make Apatosaurus such an impressive animal, including defined muscles, natural skin folds and finely textured skin across the body. Its grounded, powerful stance gives the model a realistic sense of weight and movement, while the carefully finished surface brings out the anatomical detail from head to tail.

Apatosaurus lived approximately 152–151 million years ago during the Late Jurassic in what is now North America. Adults are estimated to have reached around 21–23 metres in length and weighed approximately 15–20 tonnes. Despite its enormous size, Apatosaurus was a herbivore that used its long neck to reach vegetation across a wide area.
